First off, it's DotNetNuke (no spaces) ;)

What format are your HELP files in? Are they simple HTML? PDFs? Something else?

The files are created as Webhelp output by my typical help-authoring tool... its a flat set of files that displays a tri-pane help window interface when you launch index.html... this is typical. 

What isn't typical in Dot Net Nuke is using it to display already created html files destined for the web... the entire interface seems to be built around CREATING html pages.

All i did before when i was publishing my help project to a web server was simply publish to a folder on the server... the folder location became the URL.  Simple.  I can't figure out how to do that at all in Dot Net Nuke... there is no way to upload a large set of files to a folder...

Can you or anyone else PLEASE indicate how this could be done using this application?  Thanks.

Oh sorry, i was still spelling it wrong... =)  I should also add that I looked thru the documentation, your Getting Started topics... the list of included modules, available modules... there is no module for manging already-created HTML files... File Manager doesn't work for importing a set of HTML files to a folder. 

I greatly appreciate any help you can provide.  I could be using this apple to make an orange... perhaps CMSs are not destined to present already-created content, just to create/present in.  In that case, i'm probably hooped.  but i do appreciate your reply.
